PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To save-energy by reducing an air using amount of an air suction source, while maintaining a feature of a high component service rate in a vacuum suction conveying system, as it is. SOLUTION: A chip component supplying apparatus comprises supply passages 31, 41 of chip components 20 having one ends as inlets of the components, component stoppers arranged at other ends of the passages to position the components, an opening for taking out the components for taking out the components positioned by the stoppers, and an air suction hole for communicating with an ejector 110 to supply the components in the direction of the stoppers. When the opening is blocked by a shutter 63 to supply the components in the passages, the ejector 110 sucks in a predetermined normal air suction amount from the suction hole. When the opening is opened by the shutter 63 to take out the components, the air suction operation of the ejector 110 is made slightly weaker from that at normal times. |
